Into the Strait The 3rd Section enters the Surigao Strait, and Mogami's scout planes spot a number of PT Imps lying in ambush. The group suddenly comes under air attack, and while they are able to repel the enemy fighters, both Shigure and Fusou suffer minor damage. As night falls, the 3rd Section continues pressing further into the strait. Shigure stays behind with the battleships while Mogami leads the rest of the destroyers to flush out the PT Imps. However, while Mogami's unit is preoccupied, Shigure and the battleships are ambushed by another group of PT Imps. Shigure does her best to defend Fusou but is quickly overwhelmed by the enemy numbers until Mogami's group returns in the nick of time to finish them off. Encouraged by how well the mission is going, the 3rd Section continues further into the strait. Meanwhile, the 2nd Striking Force begins their own advance, while a massive Abyssal fleet lies in wait on the other side of the strait.
